Study Notes
Vectors
- Vectors are quantities with both magnitude and direction.
- Vectors combine according to specific rules.
- Examples of physical quantities represented by vectors include force, velocity, acceleration, electric field, and magnetic field.
- A vector is represented by a directed line segment with an arrowhead.
Scalar Definition
- Scalar quantities are those that can be specified by a number and a unit.
- Scalars have magnitude but no direction.
- Examples of scalar quantities include mass, length, time, density, energy, and temperature.
Addition of Vectors
- Vectors can be added using geometrical methods and analytical methods.
- Geometrical Method:
- To represent a vector on a diagram, use an arrow.
- The length of the arrow is proportional to the vector's magnitude.
- The direction of the arrow indicates the vector's direction.
- The arrowhead represents the sense of direction.
- Analytical Method: Using components of vectors.
Rules for Adding Vectors Geometrically
- The resultant vector r is obtained by drawing a line from the tail of the first vector to the head of the second vector.
- a + b = b + a (commutative law)
- (a + b) + c = a + (b + c) (associative law)
Vectors Subtraction/Difference
- For a vector a, the negative -a is a vector with the same magnitude but in the opposite direction.
- a - b = a + (-b)
Equal (Identical) Vectors
- Two vectors are identical if they have the same magnitude and point in the same direction.
- Example: AB = CD
Displacement, Independent of the Path of Motion
- The path of a particle from X to Y need not necessarily be a straight line.
Unit Vectors
- A vector with a magnitude of 1 is a unit vector.
- |â| = 1
- Unit vectors are typically used to specify directions.
Resolution of Vectors
- The geometrical method has limitations in three dimensions.
- For this, the analytical method is useful for resolving vectors into components (components with respect to a coordinate system).
- Components of a vector R along the x- and y -axes can be calculated, using sine and cosine ratios
- ax = |a|cosθ
- ay = |a|sinθ
Component of a Vector
- For a vector A, use components to express a position vector.
- A = axi + ay j + az k
Vector Multiplication
- There are three ways to multiply vectors:
- Multiplying a vector by a scalar. Example kẢ.
- Dot product. Example: Ả⋅ B = |A||B|cosθ.
- Cross product. Example: Ĉ = Ả × B = |A||B| sin θñ
Properties of the Dot Product
- a • b = b • a
- c(a • b) = (ca) • b
- (a + b) • c = a • c + b • c
Summary of Unit Vectors and Dot Product
- î • î = ĵ • ĵ = k • k = 1
- î • ĵ = î • k = ĵ • k = 0
